--- Comment #2 from golemus <[email protected]> ---
I suggest that importance of this bug is changed from normal to major. It has
been present already for years without a fix and causes significant disruption
for upgrade process. 



This and all related bugs have been present in Libreoffice Windows for at least
3-4 years, probably more.

Every time I ugrade Libreoffice it breaks icons of Writer and Calc (probably
because they are most used parts of LO by me) and changes them to plain white
documents. I think it also affects the general libreoffice icon to some degree.

In best times it takes 2 minutes to fix it. In worse times (like just 5min ago)
it takes 15-30 minutes to fix it, killing explorer and then deleting iconcache
from C:\Users\USERNAME\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer, restarting
explorer. Sometimes it works some times it does not. Sometimes starting calc or
writer by double clicking executables in C:\Program Files\Libreoffice, and then
pinning it fixes the issue sometimes it does not fix. Sometimes attempting
reboots in between if it would fix. It is hard to identify root cause.

This is Libreoffice spesific problem/bug, NO other apps I use or has used
breaks icon in every upgrade. And I have reproduced this in at least 2
different windows 11 machines, potentially even 3-4.

This is main reason I avoid upgrading at all as having generic icon on taskbar
makes it hard to use.
